Purell, America's #1 Hand Hygiene Sanitizer

Thursday, 4 September 2008 02:05 by Admin

Most germs are spread by hands, and hands carry germs throughout the office or day care. With one touch, germs spread to co-workers and work surfaces.  As we go through our day, we're in constant contact with these germs and deposit them at our desks. A recent study showed there are over 10 million germs on the average desktop. We can wipe the germs off the desk, but they'll eventually be re-deposited. So what should you do? With one touch, germs spread to co-workers and work surfaces. If your work requires you to work with patients, you understand the importance of using a good hand sanitizer. Think about how many times you touch door handles, water fountain, vending machine buttons, office copier, conference room table and chairs and more. That could mean absenteeism due to illness.  It's simple, keep your hands clean use Purell in your workplace with a Purell Desktop Dispenser.

Hurricanes and Weather Emergency Essentials, Are You Prepared

Wednesday, 3 September 2008 10:22 by Admin

   If you or someone you know,maybe even your loved ones live in a hurricane prone area,be sure that you have the necessary emergency essentials on hand this hurricane season. There are a few simple steps you and your family can take to become better prepared for an emergency: buy an emergency kit or buy the supplies to make your own kit, make a plan and stay informed. Be sure to understand the storm related hazards, storm surges, flooding, bridge closures and how high wind will affect your home. Do you know which room in your home is the safest for you and your loved ones? Plan escape routes and a meeting place incase you are separated. Post emergency phone numbers that will be needed.


When preparing for a possible emergency situation, it's best to think first about the basics of survival: fresh water, food, clean air and warmth.

Recommended items to include in a basic emergency supply kit include:

* Water, one gallon of water per person per day for at least three days, for drinking and sanitation
* Food, a three-day supply of non-perishable food
* Battery-powered or hand crank radio and a NOAA Weather Radio with extra batteries for both
* Flashlight and extra batteries
* First aid kit
* Whistle to signal for help
* Dust mask, to help filter contaminated air and plastic sheeting and duct tape to shelter-in-place
* Moist towelettes, hand sanitizer, garbage bags and plastic ties for personal sanitation
* Tools, Wrench or pliers to turn off utilities
* Can opener for food
* Local maps

Other items to consider:
* Medical supplies, prescription medications, glasses, wheelchair
* Infant formula and diapers
* Pet food and extra water for your pet
* Important family documents such as copies of insurance policies, identification and bank account records
* Cash or traveler's checks, changes and some coins
* Emergency reference material such as a first aid book
* Sleeping bag or warm blanket for each person. Consider additional bedding if you live in a cold-weather climate.
* Complete change of clothing including a long sleeved shirt, long pants and sturdy shoes. Consider additional clothing if you live in a cold-weather climate.
* Household chlorine bleach and medicine dropper - When diluted nine parts water to one part bleach, bleach can be used as a disinfectant. Or in an emergency, you can use it to treat water by using 16 drops of regular household liquid bleach per gallon of water. Do not use scented, color safe or bleaches with added cleaners.
* Fire Extinguisher
* Feminine supplies and personal hygiene items
* Mess kits, paper cups, plates and plastic utensils, paper towels
* Paper and pencil
* Books, games, puzzles or other activities for children

You should also keep a smaller version of your kit in your car or truck incase you commute or travel when a disaster strikes.The car kit should include many of the same items listed above plus you should consider adding the following:

* Booster cables
* Shovel
* Tire repair kit and pump
* Flares or other emergency marking devices
